Educational PhilosophyInterCommunity’s philosophy has remained the same since its inception -- warm, nurturing, knowledgeable, certified teachers provide a child oriented nursery school experience with the help of assistant teachers and parents participating in the classroom on a rotating basis. It is this opportunity for parents to participate in this intellectually stimulating environment that distinguishes the cooperative concept of early education and makes for such a rich experience for child and parent.
The program also offers the additional opportunity for parents to network with other parents who also regard children as a priority and who possess a desire to raise confident, thinking, disciplined individuals. In this safe setting, along with the guidance of skilled professionals, parents have the opportunity to enhance their parenting skills and learn from each other. Our Cooperative has Three Main Purposes: 1. To further the social physical, intellectual and emotional growth of the preschool child by providing him with a regular association with other children his/her own age, under the guidance of trained and understanding teachers, in a safe and creative environment 2. To educate parents concerning needs and growth patterns of children and in the techniques of working with children through conferences, programs and guided participation in the classroom 3. To develop community-minded adults, trained in democratic action, ready to work, as their children grow older, for other community causes and other community needs.
